We have arrived!


After a perfectly on-time flight from Fort Lauderdale to Atlanta, I caught a second flight to London's Gatwick Airport. Once on the ground, I was met by the London FSU crew, who were waiting in the wings for our arrival. During our coach trip to the London Study Center, we saw a number of places of interest, including Big Ben, Parliament, and the London Eye (which didn't even exist the last time I was in London). After getting our room assignments, we visited the library to get our Internet wireless connection. Later this afternoon we have a welcome get-together to meet everyone. There are six of us in our apartment, but luckily we have two baths and a separate shower. The temperature is pleasant, and life is good.
